20.500.12556/DKUM-93529 Reading adapted texts of young adult fiction and reading motivation of pupils with speech and language disorders The research studied how reading of adapted young adult fiction effects reading motivation of Slovene elementary school pupils with speech and language disorders. The research involved 50 pupils from the last three years of elementary school. Typically, pupils with these disorders do not enjoy reading during adolescence, as texts that would be suitable to their age and interests in terms of content are most often incomprehensible or linguistically too demanding for them. For the purpose of the research, we adapted two complete works of Slovene literature into an easy-to-read form (passages version in easy language). Pupils intensively read the adapted texts and also looked at the originals. This had positive effects both on their comprehension of the literary texts as well as their reading motivation. The results of the research demonstrated that adapted texts positively influence the reading motivation of pupils and their perception of literature. speech and language disorders youth literature reading motivation adapted texts easy-to-read material mladinska literatura motivacija za branje prilagojena besedila lahko berljivo gradivo true false true Angleški jezik Slovenski jezik Znanstveno delo 2025-07-01 10:25:18 2025-07-01 10:25:18 2025-07-02 03:10:16 0000-00-00 00:00:00 2025 0 0 Str. 25-45 0000-00-00 Zaloznikova Objavljeno NiDoloceno 0000-00-00 0000-00-00 2025-06-13 159.922.76:028 238312451 240915203 10.18690/um.pef.4.2025.2 RAZ_Vizjak_Puskar_Nika_2025.pdf RAZ_Vizjak_Puskar_Nika_2025.pdf 1 64655CD3C2FD24BCAE13B45BE6DACB4B 4a05c93b6470d1d15d0a7c6b1fc499d5bc39b90edb40b1690a94cdab89585e51 0cdaff7b-5655-11f0-8520-00155d000105 https://dk.um.si/Dokument.php?lang=slv&id=193008 https://doi.org/10.18690/um.pef.4.2025.2 1 ed6a322d-5654-11f0-8520-00155d000105 https://dk.um.si/Dokument.php?lang=slv&id=193007 Pedagoška fakulteta Selected Contemporary Research on Special Needs, Giftedness, and Talent in Slovenia 0 0 0
